Is this just going to be flashable from the stock "unlocked" bootloader? or with the same HTC unlocked bootloader, can we fastboot flash it?

I think flashing from unlocked htc bootloader should't be a problem

QFT. Looking good guys.

im so excited.. im gettin annoyed of the stock rom lol

Stock ROM could be annoying , but xBoarder said he'll start working on AOSP / ICS / MIUI once he get's his phone by the mean time . Sit back relax & once we get recovery there will be 3 ROMS to choose from .
1) BeastROM
2) TO Tweaked | OUT
2#2) TO Tweaked | OUT themed
3) Gingercream

If there's a test IMG of the recovery, lmk, just got my amaze a few hours ago, I'd be happy to test it.

Yeah - I used his rooted ROM to get rooted on the OTA and it kept it for all the other Rom's thereafter.
Can his ROM in the OP be flashed as an "update" with the stock recovery (by renaming it, etc.) ?

That'll be great but we don't actually need the S-OFF.
Everything should be possible through the Recovery.
Example is with the MT3G 1.2/LE device.
I don't think they have S-OFF and it's been almost two years.
There is an ENG bootloader but it disables the touchscreen for some reason.
Could you send me PMs ? I have to talk to you .

I'm down with adb but I'm also lazy.

[PORT] [WIP] [ROM]Sensation CM7 SelfKang Alphafied Number 10[GB 2.3.7]

IMPORTANT! I'm moving development to android-dev.us, if you want to know, read over there, HOWEVER, I will respond to anything posted over here
http://www.android-dev.us/showthrea...ion-CM7-SelfKang-Alphafied-Number-10-GB-2-3-7
Hey guys, I'm going to try to start to learn android rom development, and thought maybe porting a AOSP rom fromt the sensation would be a cool task to work with. Right now, I think the Sensation is the closest to our Amaze, but it's CM7 build is lacking. Either way, it will be a ton easier to port CM7 than CM9 for a complete noob, but that doesn't mean I don't need your help!
I like to keep an open mind and workflow on stuff (I collaborate musically like this) so anyone willing to help or learn something can hop right in and I would appreciate it!​
Some links I'm using for learning / porting:
Code:
It took a while, but I finally tracked down a mirror for the latest and last build of CM7 for the sensation:

I'm going to be using this kitchen:

hmmmm..... does it work with your amaze, since it isn't in the supported list i was holding back on using it
I appreciate you trying... But what makes you think the Amaze and Sensation are similar? From what I've read, Devs say they are COMPLETELY different phones.
Just thought I'd give you a heads up.
Best of luck to you though... I hope you get it working!

They are very different.... thus it has been a pain in the ass to port roms to it, but since you dont have to mess with changing the screen/resolution to match it, it makes it a little easier
---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 PM ----------
I also just noticed your porting android 2.3.7..........................good luck doing that man may god be with you lol
Ok, yea, the internals are different. So far as I can tell the sensation has an S2 snapdragon and the Amaze has an S3. I don't know if I can even get this thing to boot, but I think it will be a great learning experience nevertheless!

Hmmmm, I'm wondering how bad this risk is? Like will editing the build prop, and keeping an existing kernel brick the phone? Because by my understanding I can ALWAYS boot into the bootloader, then recovery before it even touches the files that I'm injecting
Plus my phones S-ON, not that this means anything, because I have fastboot!
From what I've read, again, there have been 0 bricked s=on Amaze devices. There have been soft bricks, but ppl have always been able to fix in fastboot

There's the soft brick my friend. Try to boot into recovery and restore. If you can't get into recovery, you will have to re-install a recovery using fastboot or adb. You can find the instructions on X's site in Amaze>Development> and find a recovery... It will be labeled "hard way" but its not really hard at all. It's easier than soft bricking your phone

Thanks man! But not needed It's just installing to the system partition and one other, but both are active only after the bootloader, so I just hold down the "volume down" button while turning on, scroll to recovery and restore my backup. No trouble at all! In fact, since I'm basing this off the stock kernel, I don't think I need to install one until I can get it booting
Thanks for the help again dude, seriously, get that screen and help me with this

This will only be useful to the people who have S-OFF or who have already done the official update right? You'd probably save yourself and others some headache by mentioning that. I'm sure you're gonna put in all the details when it's ready, I'm just saying.

thanks for the prompt response.
so what you are saying is: either way, I would have to update the ph85img with hboot
to install your rom?
would it be impossible to flash a rom from GB to ICS without going thru the hboot process?

yes if you have S OFF, no otherwise
You have to install the new hboot to install the NFC, people were having problems with it failing or something along those lines.

S-off is required because there is a new radio , and s-off is needed for that, don't worry about the wire thing, just be careful and follow the instructions and you should be fine, so far I've seen only one person that has bricked the phone

Stuck on CM10 Boot animation...

Hi I have the EVO V 4g, I rooted it, flashed TWRP 2.2 and when I flash CM9 or CM10 it gets installed and then when it boots I get stuck on the loading screen animation. It keeps spinning and nothing happens.
I can flash my stock rom without any trouble but for some reason I can't get anything else to work.
What gives?!
BTW I tried using Goo Manager too and I'm having the same problem.
Thank you for your time!
You need s-off to flash the kernel, or flash it with fastboot.

I have the same phone as you.
A hour after I bought the phone, I was s-off, flashing all sorts of hboots, flashing different firmware, installing different kernels, flashing roms... You are not stuck with what you have lol.
I ran jb for a couple days. No camera was a deal breaker.
sudo passwd root
And then there's that there's not even a decent jelly bean Rom. Oh well I guess I'll just wait a little bit. No camera or no wifi or no sound. Another thing is that I've never done this before this is the first time I've rooted a phone and I am the kind of scared to proceed. Linux is a bit over my head and to be honest all this flashing ROM s fast booting was a bit overwhelming... And to think that in order to downgrade your hboot you have to technically brick your phone.
Not to mention I saw this guy on YouTube showing how he was running cm nine with anthrax kernel and how it was so great and fast made me want to do that too. He said it took him over a month to do all that...
I'll stop...

You could get everything done within a few hours... if you're on 1.40 or 1.50 you don't have to brick to downgrade. Just S-OFF and then flash the older hboot.
CM9 is pretty stable and has everything working except 3D. CM10 is pretty stable, just doesn't have camera among other bugs.
I'm on hboot 1.57. Do I have to brick that or is it the same as 1.50?

I finally did the guys I am running Cm 10 jelly bean and it's running so smoothly and flawlessly that I m so reluctant to switch over to my HTC Harmonia. Camera doesn't work and there's some major problems going into town video playback everything else is just lightning fast and totally smooth I just love that ROM I hope they um keep pushing work on it so that its ready because it's almost perfect. I just wanna thank everyone for helping me out here and I'm posting this thread thank you I really appreciate it

I knew you wouldn't give up, the want out ways the risks, now you have to take what you learned and pass it on, I'm going to give you your first thanks, thanks for walking the path.
I said hardest part was I'm getting that wire thing for the S OFF. And finishing up with those commands that was really confusing. I'm the only thing I couldnt manage to do is to get my PRL update which is a bummer but what can you do.
BTW I'm running Gangnam CM 10. The ROM is amazing. Everything works except for the camera but I'm sure they'll add that pretty soon. Too bad I can't post in those forums heh.
Thanks again.

If you're s-on, flash the kernel of the rom via fastboot and you'll be fine.
Put the boot.img from the rom.zip in your adb folder.
type in cmd (when phone is in fastboot usb (bootloader > fastboot)):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
exg. fastboot flash boot c:\Users\yourname\boot.img
(my adb folder is in my user directory)
I already spent my whole Friday night doing the s-off. Its done lol. Thanks tho
